These type of ‘international days’ have sprung up all over the place, often concocted by marketers looking for ways to promote their products. International Beer Day was started in California in 2008, and is now marked on the first Friday of August each year – which is August 2 this year – in a move that reeks more of late-capitalistic desperation than anything else. The official International Beer Day website says it is celebrated in 200 cities around the world, and states: “International Beer Day is a global celebration of beer, taking place in pubs, breweries, and backyards all over the world.

The restructuring of US forces in Japan will see the creation of a new operational command capable of fighting a war alongside a new Japanese joint command. It is, according to defence secretary Lloyd Austin, “the most significant change to US Forces Japan since its creation and one of the strongest improvements in our military ties with Japan in 70 years”. The extra funding for the Philippines’ military and coast guard reflects the deepening of Washington’s security partnership with Manila since Ferdinand Marcos Jr became president in 2022.
